RedBard 71 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Batman has his Gotham series.So Superman gets his... Krypton one?Right, as if Smallville wasn't enough of a fan service. Let's try and extend it to a home planet that no longer exists (otherwise, it wouldn't be about Clark Kent). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 455 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 They actually have some solid candidates for Wonder Woman in case McLaren passes on the gig, Babadook director Jennifer Kent and Homeland's Lesli Linka Glatter.McLaren is a great candidate. Hopefully WB won't tie her hands like Marvel did with Alan Taylor on Thor: The Dark World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Very sexist that a female director is sought for this film. This eliminates dozens of competent male directors simply on the basis of their gender! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt C 455 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 There would be a big backlash if a male director directed Wonder Woman, and I can understand why. Never mind that a man created the feminist icon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I'm sure DC is specifically seeking a woman director for PR reasons, I'm happy for any doors it may open.Hollywood is a male-dominated workplace. It's irritating to see promising female directors get passed over for new, less experienced guys. And while getting a female director for a WW movie is definitely a PR move, it just makes sense at least for the first movie.McLaren is a fantastic choice, as her roster of TV episodes shows, and I think she can get a good performance from Gal Gadot if Zack Snyder can't. McLaren would be perfect for any of WB's upcoming DC movies, not just Wonder Woman. I'll be happy to see her name on the film if she's given room creatively to make a good movie.

Matt C 455 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Jaden Smith is bound to be weaved in somehow.I heard Will Smith was instrumental in getting Viola Davis (The Help, "How to Get Away With Murder") on board as Amanda Waller in Suicide Squad. Nepotism involving his kids aside, if you have Will Smith in your corner campaigning for you, that's a good thing.She's a fantastic actress and perfect for the role.

I mean, how do you climb higher than Everest?They're not going to try and out-do Heath. (For one, Leto doesn't look like him.) They're going for a completely different direction... due to Harley's involvement. I don't think Nolan even thought about using her at all.On the other hand, Margot Robbie's casting as Harley Quinn is spot-on. She LOOKS the part (watch the animated series, she even looks the part without the clown makeup) and the acting to back it up. She can nail the funny and crazy side of the character too.
